Fishing Overview for Cape Wickham

The island’s iconic northern tip beneath the lighthouse offers rock-ledges and points where currents concentrate bait, drawing Australian salmon, silver trevally, and in settled summer weather the odd yellowtail kingfish. Metal lures and stickbaits cover the washes, while baits sunk into deeper pockets pick up trevally and wrasse. Best fished in lighter swell windows, with dawn and dusk changes bringing fish tight to the stones. Nearest Hub: Currie

Sun and Moon Times

The sun will be at it's highest point at . Today we have 9:25 hours of daylight. For shallow water fishing the twilight periods are often the most productive fishing times, especially on days when a major or minor time will coincide with twilight. In low light conditions predators have better cover for their ambush and often hunt in shallow water.

We can compare the current moon distance to it's minimum and maximum distance from earth and express that as proximity. A high proximity means the moon is closer to earth. At 50% it would be at it's mean distance. A high proximity causes big tides, currents and has a direct effect on increased bite times. A proximity greater than 90% indicates a super moon.

7 Day Fishing Weather

The weather plays an important role in fishing. Wind strenght and direction often determine where you can fish and where fish might be holding. Although high pressure is usually good for fishing, steep pressure changes often trigger feeding frenzies and are great times for fishing. Of course temperature has also a strong effect on fishing and comfort on the water. So make sure to cross check the weather forecast with the solunar fishing times to determine the best times to go fishing.
